Noel Murray Los Angeles Times 06/07/2019
But after a while, the preponderance of creepy teases - a freaky doll, a bloody ghost, a surly handyman, a chorus of whispery voices and more - makes this feel like a supernatural thriller that can't settle on how exactly it wants to scare the audience.

The Child Remains is typical of the kind of dumpster material we're getting these days at the movies. Go to Full Review Rocco T. Thompson Rue Morgue Magazine 07/03/2024
There’s certainly an authority and dedication from both director and cast to the unholy mess of it all, but ultimately, The Child Remains is all sizzle, no (baby) steak. Go to Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed 04/12/2020
3/5
The film has some stunning shots and good performances that elevate it past something that could have been marked off as a "movie of the week" type of film. Go to Full Review Tracy Allen PopHorror.com 08/08/2019
5.5/10
Although the film had some faults, I thinkThe Child Remainsis a strong, inventive addition to the indie film genre. Go to Full Review Matt Donato Flickering Myth 06/09/2019

The Child Remains is an outrageous, messy amalgamation of genre tonality that is far more confounding than it is cleanly executed. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Alex W Oct 31 A lackluster film with sub-par acting, no real direction, and characters you’ll be indifferent about. Indie films are capable of much more. See more 12/29/2021 The acting is not as bad as some are making it out to be. It serves it purpose. The main issue is the writing and the characters, specially the main character who is an absolute pain all the way through. See more 03/23/2021 The entire movie looked cheap, was directed poorly and acted even worse. The movie has no scares and doesn't know how to scare its audience or even create and real sense of tension. I can take a low budget horror but this was awful. See more 08/22/2020 It was like a trainwreck, but I was entertained nonetheless. See more 04/27/2020 This movie is very suspenseful! The rating is low but shouldn't be! I don't believe in spoilers so I won't write specifics about the movie! However, if your looking for a movie that gets you on the edge of your seat, while having you want to rock back in forth trying to figure out the twists, this is the movie for you! Well worth it! Stephen King has done it again! Did I mention it's based on true facts which is such a mind f@$k in itself! See more 02/23/2020 We absolutely loved it .thank you from tomahawk wi See more Read all reviews
